I agree I think Google is only interested in generating revenue, unfortunately the NSA and other "agencies" are going to use the data for other things.
Additionally consider Apple's security track record of late, (get fail?) and frankly I don't think Google/Android were ever designed to keep things private.
I have no proof of what I say, I am basing everything off previous experience and the obvious "conspiracy" between governmental agencies and certain corporations.
I would bet a large amount of money that I am close to, or right on top of the truth of the matter. Your mileage may vary.
Basically they are going to continue screw us (same thing is happening here in the US) and they are going to do it with our permission (not really but it will legislate that way) and if you're against it... the 4 horsemen of the infopocalypse: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... will be evoked.
Like hiring outside contractors while you violate the letter of the law and gather up everyone's Internet and phone communications, including sticking backdoors into firmware, hardware, and major brands of software? Some of said brands were working with the NSA. Risky like that?
The NSA (and other agencies) have noticed a significant drop in data, and an increase in the use of encryption/VPN/proxies/TOR since Snowden went public.
They realized more people were starting to take care with their data, so how to fix (read stop) it?
OK, first we have the NSA complaint corps (Apple, Google, Facebook, Twitter) code some "encryption" made out of tissue paper, then they send out the FBI (and other agencies) talking heads to publicly denounce this "encryption" as though they were seriously concerned.
Now people thinking they have encrypted their devices and are safe will once again become complacent.
But the real story is even more absurd, the fact that the average person believes they are of any interest to anyone but marketers.
Last week my father was almost killed walking through the parking lot to his car, just seconds prior to that a young woman was almost hit by the same driver. That driver was looking at their phone while driving through the parking lot.
Why would anyone think a flying car is a good idea?

They are going to take away everything period.
Seems like a very risky strategy

Think about it.
And how likely is that for the average person.

That isn't America though...
And you should pay for that.
Tons of cheap sapphire plates available?
I could think of a few uses.
So I say it will never happen, you say "sure it could" and then give a long winded explanation of why it won't. ...
That will never happen.
The FCC chair is a shill for Comcast and that ilk.
That is all.
